Your Life Is Now: Divine Guidance

August Problem
I’m struggling right now. I am a survivor of incest and the young adult mental health system. I’m a divorced mother of two and currently in a good relationship. However, I’m suffering from flashbacks and having difficulty coping when the kids are screaming. They’re not in danger from me, but I know my warning signals and am not sure what to do. Can you please offer some advice?
